🧵 I’m thrilled to have signed with @cintopress for my forthcoming book “WOMEN EXIST: how the gender critical movement defeated Stonewall Law” The book will explain how & why UK law has upheld women’s rights against the demands of transactivism…/1 cintopress.co.uk/women-exist.ht…

@roisinmurphy @cibbwinz Well done for taking time to explain the film. Andy is clearly intent only on attacking you based on a single set of opinions but other people see these interactions and learn a lot from them.

It’s a brilliant script. The character Hecky Brown, played by the wonderful Zero Mostel, is a comedian blacklisted for tenuous links to the Communist Party. He loses everything and, in the end, commits suicide, which breaks the film’s mood entirely and shocks you to the bone. “Several people involved in the making of the film—including screenwriter Bernstein, director Ritt, and actors Mostel, Herschel Bernardi, and Lloyd Gough—had been blacklisted. The end credits list the year they were blacklisted alongside their respective credits.[1] Bernstein was listed after being named in the Red Channels journal that identified alleged Communists and Communist sympathizers.” I know this is a lot of reading for you, Andy, and you probably haven’t got this far, but you should watch it. You might learn something.
